because you know that many companies wouldn't do that. they would pay them 1 cent a day if they could
Those companies would go out of business very quickly because of a lack of employees.
how? its not like only only business would drop the salaries on unskilled people, companies would across the board and people would be stuck.
If most people make more than the min wage then how would that happen since companies are already paying a market wage for their higher-skilled employees?
and you assertions about illegals should tell you what the actual market wage is for those jobs. If I could hire two illegal for the cost of one legal worker and get the same, or better, productivity, I sure would be doing it.
